Middle-aged Mr. Badii is planning to commit suicide and desperately seeks anyone to assist him - he has already dug out the grave in the mountains, but the assistant will have to bury him when he will do the deed. He asks Kurd soldier, Afghan seminarian, but everyone refuses by some reason. Finally he finds an old Turkish taxidermist, who has a sick son and previously attempted suicide himself, and he agrees to assist Badii.

"13.5. Kiarostami rakastaa autokeskusteluja, ja niitä Kirsikan maussa löytyy. Keskustelustrategiat muuntuvat erilaisten ihmisten kohtaamisissa, kun Badii koittaa löytää itselleen apumiestä äärimmäisen kiellettyihin toimiin. Haastavia aiheita ja teemoja yhtä kaikki. Ihastuttavan hieno elokuva tässäkin."

"16.4. Join tämän aikana kirsikkaista viiniä. Maistoin kirsikan maun. En halunnut tappaa itseäni. Elokuvan päähenkilö halusi tappaa itsensä. Pohdintoja itsensä tappamisesta muslimina pohdittiin."
